we don’t thank egeria enough for giving damen his Dimple. she said on god my son will be a thirst trap for the masses. she said if the heir to throne thing doesn’t work out he can always fall back on marriage. and you know what? she was right. laurent fell in love with him knowing he was homeless broke and sleeping in his car. didn’t even have a country or an army to his name. but he turned on the Dimple and sent the croissant prince to his knees.
damen in those nipple clamps fighting for his life: 🫦🫦🫦
laurent:
get you a man who gives himself first-degree burns if you smile at him
secret santa for @oxbennett, who mentioned coffee shop au, and you know I had to do it to em. hope you like it, and happy new year!
bonus:
— Released from the weight of the jacket, Laurent rolled his shoulder, as he did sometimes after a long day in the saddle. Damen brought his hand up to squeeze Laurent’s shoulder gently— and then stopped. Prince’s Gambit was by far my favorite out of the Captive Prince Trilogy. Golden Age vibes, Commander x Second-in-command, UST, it truly had it all to make me fall. This was one of the scenes that had me actually trembling while I was reading. (Damen and Laurent belong to s @c.s.pacat!)

young!Laurent vibes if his uncle did end up putting him on front lines
damen throughout the entirety of princes gambit when he’s alone in a tent with laurent
will never get over this being damen’s initial reaction upon setting his eyes on laurent
oh to be described as having an “astonishingly lovely face” by the sexiest man that’s ever lived
little nicaise after being tucked in bed by his baba damianos
AHH BABIESS
But what if Auguste survived and came back to Laurent.. ;_;
“If the purity of Laurent’s profile drew the eye, Damen had the scars on his back to prove that one could look, but not touch.”
a golden prince - a little laurent portrait originally posted on my twitter!
Nicaise lives and comes back to Laurent one spring, clad in armor; he is a young man now, ready to serve his King.
"Yes, uncle. Thank you, uncle."
honestly one of my main criticisms of the books — this and that none of the characters have last names. idk i’d just appreciate a little more world building 🥹
ummm.... why did i just realize that the regent remains nameless throughout the whole trilogy??? i even checked the character lists and it only says the regent of vere... INTERESTING
any thoughts on this?
i mean look at that face
another (but lazy) attempt to draw the Laurent
back from my cave and here to say that this is so them
it’s winter and it’s so darn cold here, imagining Laurent and Damen happily sleeping and cuddling in the summer palace keeps me going
ANCEL!!!! the emerald earrings matching his eyes, absolutely gorgeous 💚
Would you ever consider doing a sketch/drawing of Ancel from Captive Prince?
LOVE HIM
ahhhh!!!! look at laurent’s white horse! look at their banners!! look at their people cheering for them!!
heart = warm
Long live the alliance!

Sketches of my snake son and bonus Damen.
Laurent only lets his hair down when he’s ready to feel vulnerable and GAY AF.
teen laurent and paschal :’(
‘You never told me how you ended up in Laurent’s faction’ ‘I was the Regent’s physician.’ ‘So you ministered to his household.’ ‘And to his boys,’ said Paschal. Damen said nothing. After a moment, Paschal said, ‘Before he died, my brother served in the King’s Guard. I never swore my brother’s oath to the King. But I like to think that I’m carrying it out.’
Another WIP I started 2 hrs ago :)
his little gold circlet!!
young laurent, bookish and lovely and all things golden.
some of my ooold captive prince fanart. here’s my take on laurent (i love this hairstyle but tbh i think it would be shorter in canon)
laurent WHAT IS UR MOTIVEEE???!!! why r u playing with damen bae. why r u initiating texts with him. why r u wearing the cologne he bought you a year back. why r u telling him to go out with ur bestie (ancel) just to jump scare his ass and flaunt ur new yucky bf in front of him. WHAT IS UR DEAAL🙄
that new hiuh chapter tho…. 🫦
